The body of the stein is a smooth, two-tone blue glazed, high quality stoneware decorated with a gold wrap around design. Created in honor of the soldiers of the U.S. Air Force, this stein details a timeline of major events and accomplishments throughout the history of the Air Force. A pewter badge depicting a 60th Anniversary design encircled in the words "United States Air Force 1947 - 2007," appears at the center of the wrap around decoration opposite the handle of the stein. Rows of raised stars decorate the ornamental pewter lid and fixed to the top is a detailed pewter eagle figurine with outstretched wings. A pewter version of the U.S. eagle crest serves as the thumblift for this noble stein. Limited Edition.
